2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Five-time Flat winner in Britain; promoted winner of C&D handicap in which Friar Hogan was carried out; he had also suffered interference caused by the first-past-the-post; went up 6lb and failed to distinguish himself at Punchestown. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 12y |
11st 2lb |
Five-time Flat winner in Britain; rightly got controversial 2m4f Limerick handicap hurdle in the stewards' room after being badly hampered by the first past the post; finished off well that day and likely drier ground here is a positive. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y |
11st 12lb |
Five-time winner on the Flat in Britain; 0-11 hurdling for this yard, best effort yet when runner-up in a claimer at Clonmel in February; leading when slipped up going to three out at the same venue nine weeks ago; not ruled out. |

16th Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Regained the winning thread at Windsor (11.5f) last month; held off this mark at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) last week but did enough to suggest he remains in form; could go well. |

7th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Beaten a neck at Kempton (1m4f) on penultimate start and went one better at Windsor (11.4f) 12 days later, his first win for over two years; acts on Tapeta; back up another 2lb but in the mix if that form is repeated. |

9st 9lb |
Yet to add to his C&D win just over two years ago but lost out only by a neck when clear second back here (1m2f, good) 12 days ago and is sure to be suited by this move back up in trip; high on the list. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |

Record here reads 3133, the win coming over 1m4f in June 2024; 0-21 since, though, and others are preferred for the win; stable triple-handed. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time turf winner who last scored at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm; has won at this trip) two years ago; went close on two occasions at 1m3f (visored) during latest AW campaign but his latest effort when last of ten at Southwell (1m4f; raced freely) wasn't an ideal springboard for this switch back to grass; blinkers (has won in them before) go back on. |

9st 5lb |
Won from off the pace at Kempton in December (1m3f) but usually races prominently; well boxed to get a good early position but she raced freely out in front back at Kempton last time and didn't get home (finished behind Eleanor Cross); not entirely sure what to expect but she's capable on her day. |

26th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
The standout in-form candidate after front-running efforts on last three starts brought two 1m2f Beverley wins and a short-head defeat off this mark in blanket finish over Musselburgh's 1m4f; should go very well again. |
3/1 |

2nd 3 (3) |
11th Aug 2023 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Prominent racer; feasibly weighted seeking a hat-trick after back-to-back Beverley wins (1m2f; has risen a combined total of 5lb); the stable is going really well, he's versatile ground wise, and this sharp track should suit; enthusiasm is tempered by inconclusive stamina over 1m4f. |

All five wins have been at this track (9.4f) but losing spell goes back to April 2022 and he's been quiet in his three runs this winter; mark continues to fall but he's 0-8 at this trip and others are more convincing. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Two wins at Redcar (1m, good to firm/good to soft) last summer, the latest off today's mark; however, it was a tame end to the season and this 8yo needs to get back on track on his reappearance. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |

Has gained all wins on turf, mostly at Redcar; has gone off the boil since last success and this return to AW seems unlikely to help, with record in this sphere far from solid. |

Five wins at up to 1m4f but last three have been on AW and last turf win was 2022; finished placed twice on AW this season but he was last of five over C&D last month and was beaten 12l on that stable debut; opposable. |

Five-time winner; picked off by late arrivals at Chelmsford (1m2f) earlier this month and a day later changed hands for 6,000gns at the sales; could have further wins in him. |

20th Jul 2023 Soft 1m 3f 15y Class 6 |

Lightly raced 4yo whose mark continues to fall but she's been beaten a long way on her three starts this year and has plenty to prove. |

12th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 3 |

Far from consistent since her 50-1 debut success; down the field in both runs this season; now takes a step up in grade; opposed. |

8th 4 (1) |
3rd Jun 2023 Good 1m 6f 115y Class 5 |

Down the field at Wetherby on reappearance, but didn't run badly and she's now 3lb lower than when a fair fourth of nine at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) on her final run last year; could improve for last time and is not discounted. |
